THE MITIGATION OF LANDFILL GREENHOUSE AND ODOROUS GASES
The Living Earth Foundation is currently providing bioremediation services in cooperation with
the City of Los Angeles at their largest landfill, the Sunshine Canyon Landfill, to test the efficacy of specialty microbial blends designed to remediate harmful greenhouse and odorous gas emissions.
Our specialty toxin-consuming microbes are currently being applied to the solid wastes at all of
the landfill's six transfer stations as well as directly onto the refuse being deposited into the
landfill. In addition, Living Earth is beginning to provide bioaugmentation services at the
completed grassland sections of the landfill to establish microbial biofilters in the
plant root systems that help to remediate the harmful gas emissions.
